Northern Wheatear.

An unexpected find during a very recent visit to Thursley Common was this female Northern Wheatear (Oenanthe oenanthe) happily perched on a pile of logs.   FAB.

    Great shot it sounds like this Bird is not common to that area which makes your photo more precious

    Philip. Wheatear is a fairly uncommon passage migrant so all the more pleasing to find this female late in the month.
